Race Recap 2021 FLE # 6 - 30 /60 mile - Markham Masher

    The 2021 FLE #6 - 30/60 - Markham Masher, as the state racing season moves closer to the midway point, the racing venue moved to Seminole Wekiva Trail in Lake Mary, FL. The course consisted of 8 miles of flowing single track located in pine scrub and oak hammock of the Wekiva Springs State Park. The sun was out, the humidity was low and temperatures and trails were perfect for this annual South Florida stop on the FSC circuit. The race course was fast and flowy but also demanding because of all the tight and twisty turns.

The start and brief 

    Going into the race, I felt great. I had my bike dialed, I knew my fitness was good, and felt like I had good knowledge  about the course. Everything worked out perfectly, aside from a close encounter with a non racer. The individual chose to ride the trail in opposite direction of the race course. We encountered each other on a blind corner. I was able to keep my bike upright but had to come to a stop. Other than that, I felt great for the whole race.


Race Pace! 

    Aside from crossing the finish line, I think the highlight of the race was seeing how things have really come together for me since my ankle injury. With lots of hard work and patience, I was able to land on the top step of the podium.

Race Recap 2022 FLE # 7 - Highway to Haile's - Newberry, FL

Haile's Trails is a singletrack mountain bike trail in Newberry, Florida. A popular cross-country race loop that's only rideable during race weekends.The property is only open on FSC / FLE race weekends. On Saturday, the trails are open to everyone. On Sunday, they are only open to registered racers.      The racecourse views are breathtaking, the singletrack is in great condition and flows well, and you will be tested by the rugged terrain. Mainly the chunky rocks that are scattered around an old rock quarry. There are many elevation changes using the quarry terrain and medium to long climbs throughout. This makes the racing exciting.        The 2022 version of the Highway to Haile's presented by  Gone Riding had the course running in the opposite direction.
